Abstract :
Sandmark is a tool that measures the effectiveness of software-based methods for protecting software from piracy, tampering, and reverse engineering. The Sandmark team´s goal is to develop techniques that will let users determine empirically which algorithms have the least performance overhead and the highest resilience to attacks.
